Adelaide business owner says he was returning from a family function along the Karoonda Highway in late May when a man aged about 60 and dressed in a suit emerged from scrubland and quickly crossed the road.

He appeared to be on a mobile phone at the time. He was closer to Tailem Bend than Wynarka. The man was neatly dressed and clean cut.
On recently returning to the site the witness believed to have found a black tub swarming with flies and a washing basket. He gave a statement last week.

Have to say I am suspicious of this "black tub swarming with flies". Likewise the newest discoveries of the book and pink cloth (it looked a bit like a pillowcase to me) seem very convenient.... l concur with a previous sentiment: sincerely hope someone is not out there deceiving investigators with deliberate fake clues.

Thanks Puggle. I think it would be very easy to conceal a car along that road for a short period of time. Kulde Road also looks like the road where ShaunO was riding his bike in his video.

I thought ShaunO was riding along the track adjacent to the railway line. You can see the railway sleepers in a lot of the video footage.
He said he started at Karoonda and rode west along the line and along past Wynarka.

From experience in rural areas, real estate agents do letter box drops from their cars windows. They/I didn't get out of the car and walk from side to side. Only in residential areas you'd walk along the road to each letterbox.

Even a bank employee or mortgage broker wouldn't need to walk around in the bush. Who else could it be? A surveyor maybe?

This is getting really strange. Are the rumours now becoming fact and being relayed to the media and police?

I've suddenly noticed more unwanted children's toys along the roadway around my area.

This is the new witness who only just came forward recently to say he had seen a man in a suit come out of bushes along the side of the hwy, on the phone. When this witness went back to the spot he saw that man at.... he found a fly infested black tub and a washing basket.

Police have ruled out the book and pink cloth as having any connection to this case.

The horseback search started on Monday, with a children’s book and a piece of pink material found between Naturi and Tailem Bend alongside the Karoonda Highway, several kilometres from where the girl’s remains were found on July 14.

Major Crime Investigation Branch Detective Inspector Greg Hutchins said it was not believed the items were linked to the murder of the girl, whose remains were found near a suitcase and items of female clothing.

"We don't know if man or woman - but this image of the suitcase behind the tree came from one of our members called Kustom." -Puggle

Interesting that they got the date wrong in that news segment
Whilst I gave the police my details, I haven't heard anything back.
I wouldn't know if they have even processed it.
I'm thinking it's an assumption and the link has been lifted from the forum.

I did decide I was going to avoid delving too deep into hypotheticals and speculation, but the more I read about suitcase man, the more I wonder if it isn't a drop off. That the case has been moved to somewhere easier to find after he has failed to find it the first time around. Which brings me to my next thought being that there was something in the case that he needed to recover.

All these new witnesses coming forward are throwing a few spanners in the works.

I'm just listening to a Professor on the news saying he would be willing to put together a facial reconstruction. He is the same guy that did this for the Snowtown victims. So far he hasn't been contacted by police. I wonder if he could, that could certainly be useful.

Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth.
